Apps Closing Themselves

So I'm wondering if any of you are having the same problem or if there is a known solution. I'm having a problem where I have apps that will just close themselves right in the middle of what I'm doing. For instance, I was playing a game of NBA Jam earlier and in the middle of the game, it just shut down. It's done that a few times now. Or I will be trying to enter something in my calendar and it will just close. I've even had a problem where I will go to open an App, it will look like it's opening, and then it just never does. Or it opens for a second and then closes. Is this widespread? Thanks!

I guess I don't see the need to have a window pop up and say "hey your app crashed". I think that's fairly obvious when the app closes for no reason. Just seems like unneeded clutter to me. I would be more inclined to say the imperfection is with windows for giving so many unnecessary prompts.

Thanks for the quick reply. What do you mean the wrong version of the app? Shouldn't I always have the most current if I keep them updated through the app store?

It has been my experience that when the system gets updates, some of the apps I had working before the update do this "close themselves" right after startup. Then later on I will get an notification from the app store that there is an update to the app. Once downloaded the app works fine.

I think the developers sometimes have to tweak their apps to work with the new Apple updates.

That is not always the case though. I have a radio app that will work one day, then the next time I use it, it goes through this phenomena and that is when I shut the phone off and on and the app will work.
